Amazon Pre-Order; Ship When?

[triviageek]

Has anyone received the online code to unlock classic stadiums for pre-ordering on Amazon? They were promoting that those who pre-order would get those stadiums for free, however I have not heard anything from Amazon since I ordered. Have you?

Yeah, the order just changed and said it is shipping soon.

From the Amazon website regarding Release day delivery:
Accepting Delivery and Signatures

Although a signature is not required for most Release-Date Delivery items, we cannot guarantee whether our carrier will leave a package at the delivery address if no one is available to accept it. If the package is not left on your doorstep on the release date, your mail carrier should leave a note explaining your options for re-delivery or picking up the package at your local Post Office.

Yeah sorry, just looked it up. There is still a possibility of the carrier redirecting you package (which happened to me before). So its better safe than sorry to be at home for your delivery or leave a note on your door for the mail carrier i guess?

amazon ships "next day air saver" so you will def get it tomorrow, just maybe not real early. and whether or not you need someone to physically sign, or leave on your doorstep is up to the drivers discretion. usually based on your neighborhood . so you guys in the hood, make sure you are there to sign

I've done several games this way and usually get an e-mail at the end of the day that it has been shipped out. It's up to UPS to deliver it, most of my games don't get here until late in the evening though. Kind of makes me wish I had gone with a store pickup. :-(

I had Heavy Rain delivered and the UPS guy just dropped the game at the door, knocked and bailed.
